Answering the call with my back to the wall with forces in a foreign scene I was searching through the streets for our enemy watching out for IEDs I On a mission on the ground got my legs cut down The only fear was for my own team So I put on my smile and I've ran another mile And I'm stronger than I've ever been I am Invictus Given my life, my body and my soul For a purpose greater than just one Everyday I am alive and everyday I strive To protect and be a warrior I Fighting to be free, I fight for you and me For our future living all as one With our spirit and our courage and our patience and our knowledge Hope to one day put away our guns I am Invictus As each dawn arrives and history prevails I make the pain go away My heart never fails I am the captain of my fate I am the master of my soul I am Invictus
